Recently, one of Taylor Swift’s fans went above and beyond to honor the singer—and the result was priceless. Lotte, who goes by the Twitter username @teatimetay13, decided to re-create one of Taylor's costumes from her Fearless tour, specifically, the marching band ensemble, and she shared a step-by-step process of the DIY look on Twitter. The post, which has received over 1.1k likes, makes Lotte the number 1 Swiftie in my book. Read on to see some highlights from her creation process.
Lotte began with this announcement:

She laid out the pieces she needed for the outfit:
front & back panels are done & ripping them apart works! pic.twitter.com/dyDZhVs6quApril 22, 2018
Here are shots of the collar, sleeve, and jacket details:
it's not time to sew all of the details on yet but I wanted to see what it looked like so pic.twitter.com/Vwq5u8C90pApril 28, 2018
Presumably, Lotte's grandma was there for moral support:

Lotte (who kind of looks like Taylor Swift herself) tried on the jacket:

She added some finishing touches a.k.a. sequins (a Taylor signature) to the look:
got on some of the black sequins, it's late and I'm tired so I'm done for today whew pic.twitter.com/nv53RwAz2FApril 29, 2018
And posted pics of the look coming together:
SO CLOSE i have to buy some more gold cord to add to the shoulders but besides that the top is done! pic.twitter.com/Nw2iCJ0YG3May 2, 2018
There was a skirt portion too:
not completely satisfied with the look of the skirt yet but it's something(also yes the jacket looks crooked bc I put it on in a rush lol) pic.twitter.com/iEQPtsK312May 4, 2018
The completed outfit:
it's 1:30am and I need to press the skirt but...... I think....I'm done... HALLELUJAH pic.twitter.com/YAtd6dl4MvMay 5, 2018
Lotte, this is amazing. Taylor, if you need a new costume designer, you know who to call.
